4. Correlation between the cytokine profile and anticongestive medication in patients with chronic chagasic cardiopathy
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Chronic chagasic cardiopathy (CCC) is essentially a dilated cardiomyopathy in which a subacute, but constant chronic inflammatory process causes progressive destruction of the heart tissue. The action of proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interferon gamma (IFN-γ), and anti-inflammatory cytokines,

6. The importance of the early diagnosis of aorta coarctation
RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO: A coarctação da aorta é uma cardiopatia congênita caracterizada por um estreitamento que ocorre na artéria aorta. Essa constrição pode ocorrer em qualquer local ao longo de toda a sua extensão, entretanto, é mais comum entre a origem da artéria subclávia esquerda e o ducto arterioso. Sua incidência corresponde a três casos

7. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of cytokine-related genes and association with clinical outcome in a Chagas disease case-control study from Brazil
BACKGROUND The severity of chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCC), the most frequent clinical outcome of Chagas disease (CD), has been associated with cytokine-enriched heart tissue inflammation, and high serum levels of transforming growth factor (TGFβ), interferon-gamma (IFNγ), and tumour necrosis factor (TNF). Conversely, increased interleukin (IL)-10 s

8. Chagas' disease and Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokine (DARC): a mini-review
Duffy gene (FY) codifies the transmembrane glycoprotein Duffy (gp-Fy) of 35 to 43 kDa which is moderately immunogenic. This glycoprotein is polymorphic, and constitutes the antigens of the Duffy histo-blood system which were designated receptors for chemokines and denominated DARC (Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokine). This receptor has an important role in

9. Gap junction reduction in cardiomyocytes following transforming growth factor-β treatment and Trypanosoma cruzi infection
Gap junction connexin-43 (Cx43) molecules are responsible for electrical impulse conduction in the heart and are affected by transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). This cytokine increases during Trypanosoma cruzi infection, modulating fibrosis and the parasite cell cycle. We studied Cx43 expression in cardiomyocytes exposed or not to TGF-β T. cruzi, or SB-

10. Morbidity and prognostic factors in chronic chagasic cardiopathy
Chagas disease is a pleomorphic clinical entity that has several unique features. The aim of this study is to summarise some of the recent contributions from our research group to knowledge of the morbidity and prognostic factors in Chagas heart disease. A retrospective study suggested that ischaemic stroke associated with left ventricular (LV) apical thromb

11. Avaliação clínico-laboratorial de pacientes com síndrome de Kabuki / Clinical and laboratorial evaluation of patients with Kabuki syndrome
INTRODUCTION: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a genetic disease which cardinal manifestations are: facial dysmorfism, short stature of postnatal onset, skeletal abnormalities, mental retardation and abnormal dermatolyphics. Beside these manifestations, abnormalities of every organ system, has been described. The diagnosis is clinical. OBJECTIVES: The objective is to

12. Benznidazole biotransformation in rat heart microsomal fraction without observable ultrastructural alterations: comparison to Nifurtimox-induced cardiac effects
Benznidazole (Bz) and Nifurtimox (Nfx) have been used to treat Chagas disease. As recent studies have de-monstrated cardiotoxic effects of Nfx, we attempted to determine whether Bz behaves similarly. Bz reached the heart tissue of male rats after intragastric administration. No cytosolic Bz nitroreductases were detected, although microsomal NADPH-dependent B
